My daughter

Hi

I am looking for advice with my daughter. I have read a lot and she seems a typical calc carb child. She follows after me mostly and I have some key indicators like weak ankles, bad allergy to dairy and also a late reader (8), never really excelling in school till later, early teens.

My daughter was a larger baby, flabby, pale skin, blonde hair but brown eyes. She really demanded to be fed on time and while being fed had to eat constantly or she would turn red and burst into tears. She walked a couple of months late. She was extremely cautious as a baby and never made the same mistake twice, such as shutting her fingers in a draw. She is reserved, sometimes shy and thoughtful but socialises very well and makes friends easily. She always dances from one idea or scheme to another but enjoys concentrating and working on a jigsaw or some art work and now writing which she sees as art. She never stops talking and is very aware.

The key issue that highlighted something may be wrong was delayed reading and problems with phonics (her ears are fine but I noticed it does help if she looks at my mouth to pronounce words correctly). Interestingly she muddles the letters up when reading sometimes. There is also difficulty with maths, basically she takes longer to learn and needs more repetition but hates repetition. Other symptoms would be slightly enlarged tonsils, complaint of sore legs after running or walking, slightly overweight and a pot belly even though her diet is very good. Her muscle tone is not quite what it should be for her age which is maybe most visible when she is running. She also has slight ezchema, triggered by excess sugar and she is an amazing sleeper. She takes one or two minutes to fall asleep even when rested. A year ago rather than do a little homework she would make herself fall asleep which I thought was impressive.

We have completed an 8 week course of calc carb 200c and also trying kefir. Her pot belly has shrunk a little, she is more able with her reading. She is also a bit more positive, and while still very cautious, interested in new scarier things like snakes. Complaints of sore legs continue, and also now her hip a little, and while her running style still shows poorer muscle tone but she is pushing herself more. Despite everything she is extremely determined, she just takes a bit longer to get there.

I was considering putting her onto calc carb 1M for a while and take her off dairy. I believe the calc carb at the moment has allowed her to develop a little bit more and would like that to be optimum. In hindsight I maybe should have put her onto calc carb earlier however I was cautious and the key symptom was school work which made me feel some intervention was really needed.

She still is only six and a very happy child never really sick and if sick very quick to bounce back to full health. She once had scarlet fever and was very sick sleeping a lot. After she had her first antibiotic tablet she was running around again in about 30 minutes which was amazing.

Thank you

Andrew

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
You can use Calcarea Carb 1m but no more than one dose. The action of 1m may last for around 60days in this case.
